skydiving the 337

[Mark Hislop]

Vincent:

The only one of your questions that I can answer positively is that the Skymaster has been used as a skydiving plane. A few years ago, I was visiting the Tower of London. I was wearing a hat that had picture of a 337 on it. One of the castle Yeomen noticed it and told me that when he was in the service (all of the Yeomen are ex- British military non-commissioned officers) he was in a skydiving club that used the Skymaster as a jump plane. I don't remember the details of any modifications to the aircraft though.
